On call of ‘rotate,’ the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep, except on the bike where each calorie is one point. The stations are:

Alright guys count me in--I just signed up! Sorry I haven't been CrossFitting lately, but I'm battling a strained neck muscle and an effed up elbow. Should be back next week for some more punishment. Looking forward to Fight Gone Bad III.

I signed up today. I'll start collecting my donations this weekend. My sister want's me to babysit her two kids. I think that's worth a nice donation!
Depends on the kids, De... And it's funny, Kirk (I mean Keith) I was thinking about you yesterday & missing your funny posts. Sorry to hear about your neck and elbow. Good call resting for awhile & not pushing it.
